Anybody got pics of blue high beams?

Anybody have pics of their blue high beam upgrade? Both on and off would be good... I'd like to see how the blue reflection looks when the lights are off.

You should be able to find it at any local speed shop. Sometimes they even sell them at Pep Boys or Kragen. It is basically a hyper white replacement for the high beams. It is a 9005 style bulb.

SidVicious Thanks -

I just bought at PEP Boys the Sylvania 9005CB and frankly, it's a worse match to the HID then the stock bulb. I guess I'm asking for manufacturer name and part number. Any help would be much appreciated.............

Honestly, I have no idea if my bulbs match the HID's better or worse. I put them in only for the blue look. I hardly ever use my high beams so I really don't care one way or the other. Call me a ricer if you have to.

That's what it's all about... to each his/her own.

I'm with Sid & Paul, I like them as well. At least when they're off!!!
